Seahawks Poach Former 49ers Tight End Eric Saubert!
The Seattle Seahawks made a surprising move on Monday, signing Eric Saubert, a former San Francisco 49ers tight end. This signing not only adds depth to their tight end group but also raises eyebrows among 49ers fans!
🔴 From Journeyman to a New Home in Seattle
Saubert is no stranger to the NFL. Drafted in the fifth round in 2017 by the Atlanta Falcons, he has bounced around multiple teams, including Chicago, Jacksonville, Denver, Dallas, Houston, and most recently, San Francisco. With 101 career games and 19 starts, Saubert is known as a special teams specialist—something the Seahawks desperately need.

Saubert joins a tight end room featuring Noah Fant, AJ Barner, and Brady Russell, filling the gap left by Pharaoh Brown, who signed with the Miami Dolphins. This could be his chance to make a bigger impact.
